Snow

So we live in Idaho and Idaho is cold. Real cold.

I looked outside and what looked like snow was really hail! Seriously! Hail so thick it looked like snow. Well, That's beside the point. I spent two years in Taiwan and I keep tabs on what's going on over there. Right now in Pocatello it is thirty-one degrees outside. Last night it was minus two. In Taiwan? Sixty-eight! and it's a winter night over there!

Now I know my wife loves the snow and all but come on! Can't we just move?!? Think about it... no snow... no freezing temperatures... no shoveling... no starting the car half and hour before you have to leave... no icy windshields... no freezing wind...

I remember going out to the island (MaGong) a few winters back. The thermometer read four degrees that night... Centigrade... That was the coldest I ever was over there.

So, what's the moral of my story? I would gladly give up snowballs, sledding, and snowmen for 70 degree weather in the winter. :) Think about it... 70 degrees... 70 degrees... hmmm... Oh, sorry I as daydreaming there... 70 degrees...

E-mail exchange

So this is an actual e-mail exchange I had with a teacher.

Hey Professor,

When you passed the homework back I saw that you marked me for doing the wrong problems.  I had compeleted the standard problems instead of the fundamental questions as was asked in the assignment.  These were problems F-40 and F-42.  If I do these problems and submit them to you, can I still get credit for the work done, as you let some turn in assignments late, acting along these lines?  Thanks a bunch and let me know either way.

Sincerely,
Jesse

After sending this e-mail to the professor, the professor responds with this email.

No.

That was it.  No addressee or anything.  Not sure what to say.  At least he was quick and to the point?

Harry Potter *Spoilers*

So my wife and I went out to see the new Harry Potter movie...

First things first, Daniel Radcliffe looks like E.T. Just after they all apparate to the city they are all walking along and I swear he looks just like E.T.

The best part of the movie was when the snake jumps over the bed... I was not expecting that at all... Having read the books a while back I was expecting Voldemort but NO the stinking snake jumps over the bed and scares the snot out of me! I literally jumped into my wife's lap!

Overall they did very well. Splitting the movie in two might just have been the best decision the directors have ever made. Remember movie five when you jumped from scene to scene at the speed of light? I hated that. Well, kudos to the directors for slowing it down... That little dance move by Harry... yet again... I see Extra Terrestrial... haha, hilarious...

What do you think?

Side note-- Voldemort's lips were bigger than Angelina Jolie's... what was up with that? Anyone else notice or was that just me?
